I did LL from Feb to Dec 2008, stopped before Xmas with every intention of going back, but never did!! I joined CD a little while ago and truthfully wished I had done so much sooner. The flavours are so much better than LL, much more variety. I know you dont get the counselling but for me it didnt really do that much anyway.

When I joined CD I had regained just over 2 stone from my LL lightest, but it was entirely my own fault.

I have not had huge success with my CDC, and am about to join a new lady so time will tell!!! I understand there really are some fab CDCs out there tho, and so much help too on this forum as well.

hi Nade - I did two weeks on LL then swapped over to CD. I didn't think much to the LL counselling (admittedly, didn't have much of it.) Found an excellent CDC - who offers all the help I need, plus saving what will amount to several hundred pounds - which I can put towards the needed new wardrobe!

Although I'm nowhere near the maintenance phase, it seems the CD steps, gradually increasing the food content over a couple of months, should ensure a smooth transition. But I guess a lot depends on how you choose to eat when you have finished - if you go back to regular pizzas, burgers, chips etc, it's a bit of a wasted effort!
